Rainbow Chard is distinguished by its bouquet of wrinkled, slightly savoyed rich green and bronze leaves and bright colored stems. The leaves grow upright and tall from a dense rosette of ribbed stems in a myriad of colors including gold, pink, orange, purple, red, and white with bright and pastel variations. Rainbow Chard has subtle earthy flavors along with slight notes of tang. The leaves are succulent and tender when young, the stems, fibrous and sometimes bitter and inedible.
